That is the problem. It is hard to be disciplined enough to make both work. The majority of people will see the $$$ they are missing out on and the quail will get the short end of the stick.
You want to know what killed the quail.... the round bale. Before round bales you had to stock pile grass. You could not over graze and then bank on buying hay or pulling grass out of the barn. People had square bales for when it was real nasty but it wasn't any where near what they feed now days. Most people grew there own corn for feed. A lot of people planted rye grass and stuff for winter grazing. You had the diversity Jo is talking about. You had pastures that actually had grass in them grazing, plots with corn for feed, and a field that was grown up waiting to be planted in the fall with rye grass. :tiphat: One more reason I hate round bales.
